0R1623 Caterpillar Compatible Single Cylinder Compressor

What does a single cylinder compressor do?

This single cylinder air brake compressor is a high-strength component designed to provide the essential compressed air required by heavy commercial vehicle brake systems. It functions by compressing intake air and directing it to the air processing unit, ensuring consistent pressure for braking performance and pneumatic systems.

Engine compatibility and fitment

This unit is specifically engineered for Caterpillar C15 engines, while also being compatible with Caterpillar C7, C9, C11, C13, and C18 engines. It features a water-cooled design to maintain optimal operating temperatures during heavy-duty cycles and includes an integrated ESS feature for enhanced system efficiency.

Technical specifications and installation

Technical specifications include a Ø92.00 cylinder bore, a 54 mm stroke, and a 360cm³ swept volume. The assembly is equipped with a water-cooled valve plate and features an air inlet port of 7/8’’-14 UNF and an air outlet port of 3/16’’-12 UN. The weight of the unit is approximately 21.5 KG.

Maintenance and troubleshooting

To ensure proper function, technicians should verify the integrity of the water inlet and outlet ports (3/4’’-16 UNF) during installation to prevent overheating. Regular inspection of the unloader port and drive connections is recommended to maintain peak pneumatic performance in heavy commercial applications.
